21. January 2008 by Rob.
Many people have asked me over the years what I use for computer protection. Well I use a pile of free utilities plus one paid utility to do my yearly backups.
The following is what I use:
Virus Scanner - AVG Free
Firewall - Zonealarm free.
Spyware Scanners - Adaware/Spybot - both free.
Spam Blocking - Gmail - all ,y accounts are forwarded to Gmail and it’s spam filters are great.
Backup - I use Carbonite - $50 US per year.
I run Windows updates on a regular basis.
Plus I use a lot of common sense. Do not be on sites you should be on. Be careful of the attachments you open.
